I'm not sure what you mean. I saw your "POST COUNT MEANS EVERYTHING" post, and it struck me as a good-natured remark, but I have to admit I didn't fall on the floor convulsing with laughter. Who is your brother? Maybe that'd help make it clear for me.

The point was to get someone who had been a member of the boards for an extended period of time with next to no posts, like RaveN a real lurkers lurker, to say post count was all important. Something that would be the opposite of Crothian saying post count means nothing.
As for my brother I don't know what his name here is, he didn't tell me when I found out he had an account and I don't thinkhe's ever posted.

Bigger bummer on the messy battle, I've had jokes similarly fail.
I blame the rest of the world for taking things seriously.
